Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoseph Kordish is a Principal Site Reliability Engineer with 14 years of experience building secure, cost-efficient, and "boringly reliable" cloud platforms, currently making things “go pew pew” at Trellix in San Antonio. His background spans military-grade security and large-scale virtualization—managing 1,000+ VMs for the US Army and driving OpenStack rollouts for multi-tenant networks—bringing a disciplined, defense‑informed approach to SRE. He progressed through hands-on roles at Mandiant/FireEye to senior engineering leadership, combining deep operational expertise in automation, vulnerability management, and compliance (PCI-DSS, DoD environments). Joseph pairs technical rigor with a dry sense of humor (self-described definitely-human, non-lizard), and holds advanced training in information assurance alongside a psychology BS, a mix that helps him balance technical systems thinking with human-centered incident response and team leadership.
